Yes it's transaxle but it incorporates a spooled diff. But I do agree it's odd that they didn't go LSD.

Every time time Morris goes to Winton they should invite Tony Longhurst as a tool control unit.

Stoner quit. End of year is it and maybe it for racing in any form.

Very high, because it's far too warm for him to be eating an ice cream. He usually only does that when it's raining and cold.

Re: V8 Supercars 2013
So I took my boy to Sandown on the Saturday & took some crappy shots on the phone.
Then today I notice Google+ has done this to em, very smart & impressive.

Re: V8 Supercars 2013
Do you know how it works & the selection it uses, I assume it is simply a location & time of day the shots were taken that dictates it???KNAPPO wrote:I love instant awesome on G+, looks good Flinty.
Very clever!!!
Also here some of the better static shots from the phone.

Re: V8 Supercars 2013
Sure, there is a good write up on their site as there are a few factors that come into play for what type of auto awesome image it will make for you.Flinty72 wrote:Do you know how it works & the selection it uses, I assume it is simply a location & time of day the shots were taken that dictates it???

Ive started using it daily as a feed catcher of sorts. I follow a few Android modding communities mainly, Formula 1 and motorsport in general, photography, you get the drift.

Re: V8 Supercars 2013
Watching race 2 at surfers, saw a massive crash for the aussie racing cars at the back chicane! Any news on what happened?

Re: V8 Supercars 2013
this is an interesting article from Arse's Favorite Driver.

I dont think track change is the way to go, those chicanes have been around longer than most of the v8 Drivers. I like them.

Re: V8 Supercars 2013
i think the layout is fine but if they could find a fix to stop people ripping uprights out of their car if they miss a chicane then that'd good. I still miss the old full length track though.

Re: V8 Supercars 2013
Bollards don't work.
Tyre bundles don't work.
Sensors don't work.
Frankly the massive kerbs only "work" because they break the cars, but some are luckier than others.
If you remove the chicanes, where do you route the track to avoid huge straights into hairpins?
